Re: Upcoming FUNC change

Actually, FUNC makes sense in a 4STK environment but much less so in NSTK, except to make cleanup (and LASTX restore) unnecessary. I have only needed NSTK once, I think, but didn't use FUNC (which I actually believed to work the way you're going to change it to, so I'm 100% pro ;-) BTW what with rou...

Re: Trigonometric/transcendental function accuracy

Older HPs (the 41, and its emulator DM-41X) also show the problem for SIN(x) for x close to PI; eg. PI SIN (in RAD mode of course..) returns -4.1E-10 on a 41. I'm not sure which model was first, but certainly the 42S and its faithful simulator Free42 (and thus, the DM42) get it right, the latter eve...

Re: Root-Seeking Algorithms

This final link is an excellent solver that Valentín Albillo wrote for the HP-35s. It not only provides results for both real and complex roots, the user only has to provide a single initial guess. In algorithmic terms its efficient, but the sluggish 35s processor doesn't show off the algorithm at ...

DELR bug

Yes, incredibly after all these years!

do:
2
ENTER
NEWMAT
EDIT
55
ENTER
DELR
44
X<>Y

it shows 55 on the 42S and 0 on the simulators(Free42, Plus42, DM42)
DELR should disable stack lift, in other words.

Cheers, Werner

Re: Huston (Thomas), we have a problem

Confirmed, and Free42 (iOS v3.0.17) behaves the same way.
Thankfully, you didn't know about the CLKEYS command or you would never have found this ;-)

Re: Hepax module memory storage

HEPROOM is expressed in registers, not words. From the same manual: 'A data file is a collection of HEPAX data registers. Each register will hold one number or 6 characters of text – just like a main memory data register. Recall that one register in main memory is seven bytes = 7 x 8 bits = 56 bits....

The single element doesn't have to be encapsulated in a list for that to work.
Unless it is a list itself..

Re: Plus42 features in dm42 anytime soon?

Of course, the infinite stack is also a part of Free42, and is already in the DM42 as well. You have to enable it in the settings first (Dynamic Stack Extension), otherwise you don't get the NSTK/4STK commands.

Re: Collection of wishes for future SwissMicros products - discussion following Bob Prosperi's HHC 2022 talk

Not mentioned before, but something *I*'d like to see: a DM71
Simulation (Free71, in which case it can be a portrait model ;-) ) or emulation, regardless.
